A successful two bedroom stone holiday cottage with adjoining three bedroom residential property, requiring completion, with approx. 11.5 acres of off-lying land with barn, river frontage and fishing rights
The vendors have kept show livestock, including cattle sheep and alpacas, as well as running the very successful holiday let. They have recently begun conversion of the adjoining property into a three bedroom residential unit, which is at second fix stage and will require completion. Planning ref: 07/0538 approved May 2018
There are magnificent views in all directions from both the properties and from the land.
The property is situated in the Upper Lune Valley an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the edge of The Lake District and close to the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The Village of Orton is close by and has a pub and a Post Office / general store. Kirkby Stephen, just a little further afield, has a wider range of facilities, as do the well known towns of Kendal and Penrith. J38 of the M6 is approx. two miles away, providing convenient and easy access to the major cities of the North West and beyond.
The current owners have lived in a log cabin on the land until recently but an appeal for planning permission has been refused.

There are the following outbuildings with approx. sizes:
Barn One 74’8 x 39’3 (about 22.9m x 12.2m) incorporating a secure Workshop, with hot and cold running water, power and light. This barn would lend itself to adapting for Internal Stabling if required.

There are two further access points to the land from the road. The further field has provided a Hay Crop in recent years.
The bottom boundary of the Land is the River Lune, and the Fishing Rights are included in the sale.
The current vendor informs us they currently rent further adjoining land, and they believe that this agreement may be available to purchasers.
There is currently a Log Cabin sited beyond the barns which will be removed prior to exchange as it does not have planning permission.
